Tamara BrodinskyMay 7, 2013The museum has screenings, twice a day about the history of Jerusalem. Usually 21:30, 22:30, about 45 min long and cost is 55₪ per ticket. It's nice if you want to learn more about the old city.Upvote9DownvoteUpvoted 1 week ago
Sander ZuurhoutNovember 6, 2018Great history museum not to miss when in Jerusalem. You don't need audio tour because everything is displayed. Come here before 10am and escape the crowds. Nice views towards Old City/Temple Mount!
